Grace for False Starts & Fresh Sparks
Hey W.R.I.T.E. Society friends,
If January didn’t go as planned, you’re in good company. So many of us start the year with big hopes, only to find ourselves slowed down by life—or just the heaviness of the world right now. Let’s give ourselves permission to feel it, but also to find gentle ways forward.
If you need encouragement or a creative reset, here are a few of my recent Substack posts—choose whichever speaks to you most:
- For when you’re starting over or need a reset:Why I’m Starting Over (And What’s Changing)
- For when self-doubt creeps in:Growth Syndrome: Why ‘Imposter Syndrome’ Means You’re On the Right Track
- For when you need permission to go slow:Winter Writing Isn’t Lazy. It’s Incubation.
- For when you want sustainable, gentle progress:The Minimum Viable Writing Week
- For when you’re seeking structure without pressure:Soft Structure: The Kind That Holds Your Writing (Not the Other Way Around)
Browse, read, or just bookmark for later—take what you need and leave the rest.
If you'd like to check in below:
- How are you really doing?
- What’s one small thing you could do for your writing or your well-being this week?
Every fresh start counts, even in February. We’re in this together.
